The Body Shop Mango Body Butter 200 ml

Product Information

Often times the complaint about homemade body butters is that they are too greasy and oily on the skin. Adding arrowroot powder to the mixture will help with this. Mango butter has a lot of benefits for the skin and is often found in skincare items. It doesn’t clog pores and works well for acne-prone skin. In fact, mango butter can be used for all skin types.

I love making my own natural skincare and this whipped mango butter is one of my favorites. It is made with all-natural ingredients that will keep your skin silky smooth. After freezer I whipped for 2 minutes and had perfect whip and consistency I wanted. (Really most people would find step 2 good. But I wanted extra whip. Lol) NOTES: If stored properly, whipped body butter will be good for up to one year. It is best to store in a glass container with an airtight container. Before mango butter is whipped, it has a similar consistency to regular butter. I prefer to whip it to give it that light and fluffy texture. BENEFITS OF MANGO BUTTER Mango butter doesn’t only have amazing benefits for the skin, but also the hair. Using mango butter in the hair can soften, moisturize, and provide hydration.

Once made and in airtight jar, how long will it keep unrefrigerated? Or do I need to add in a preservative? If you made this recipe, be sure to leave a comment below and let me know what essential oil blend you went with! You have the option of adding essential oils to your whipped mango body butter and I highly recommend it! Essential oils have great benefits for the skin and will make it smell amazing. I love adding lavender essential oil for anything skincare because of the incredible benefits it has for the skin. Lavender can reduce signs of aging, improve skin imperfections, and keep the skin clean and purified.

Citrus oils are fun to add to mango butter to give it that fun fruity scent. It is important to note that citrus essential oils are photosensitive and shouldn’t be used topically in direct sunlight.

You can use mango butter as it is on the skin. Simply cut off a small amount of the butter and rub it directly into the skin. As you rub it on the skin, it will melt and rub in nicely. If you want to make whipped mango butter, cut the mango butter into small pieces and place it in a bowl. Add in some type of carrier oil and whip with a handheld mixer.
